Are you curious to hear about Carnival celebrations in Italy? Marika describes for us some of the traditions and curiosities.

Antonio is a teacher and we find him at Somma Vesuviana, on the slopes of Vesuvius, near Naples. For some time he has tending a small garden, where he grows vegetables, which he sees as miracles of the earth, with seeds developing into fruits.

In this video, Antonio speaks in more detail about Praia's Madonna of the Cave. He shows us the rock where the ship's captain set down the wooden statue in the 14th century and he shows us the room where the statue is now housed.

Antonio tells us about the origins of Praia and its appeal to tourists. Praia is a very special and attractive little town, where tourists can do and see many things.

Antonio is in Praia a Mare and talks to us about the cult of the Madonna della Grotta (Madonna of the Cave), patron saint of the city. The cult began in 1900, and every year in August the statue of the Madonna is carried in a procession, where many of the faithful take part.

We have a look inside the 12-cylinder engine of the Testarossa to see what kind of grade it will receive out of ten.

René Arnoux is back, telling us more about the Ferrari Testa Rossa, and some interesting facts about the evolution of the name. He also mentions the famed TV series, Miami Vice.

Here are two cars symbolizing the dream of many Italians: The Ferrari Testarossa and the Autobianchi Bianchina. Let's discover their stories.

Pasolini is asked what he thinks about progress and development. He is also asked about the inspiration he seems to have taken from subjects of the New Testament of the Bible.

Pasolini talks about how he moved from literature to cinema, and how his ideas about language changed. He talked about providing Italians with an opportunity to demonstrate racism, perhaps for the first time, with his movie, Accattone.

Valentina's success coincided with the beginnings of feminist movements in Italy. She depicted a woman who was strong and independent, who could do anything a man could do, a departure from the stereotype of the Italian housewife.

In 1963 Crepax got his start in the world of comic books and two years later created his famous character, Valentina. The comic strip first appeared in the anthology comic book, "linus," founded by Giovanni Gandini, who had known Crepax as a kid.

After talking about the past, Vera and Giuliano talk about what they'd like to do in the future: There are places to visit and revisit.

Vera and Giuliano are each true fans of the other. But Vera can't help preferring Giuliano's directing artistry to his acting skills.

Vera and Giuliano share some memories about how they found some of their ideas for movies. They also talk about Giuliano's acting, which was not always appreciated.
